Happy New Year! We are more than excited to start 2019 off with one of our favorite humans- Scott Jaime. Scott kicked off our podcast back in November 2015 on Episode #1 so we thought it was time to get him back. We cover what he has been up to, state of ultra running, his BIG plans for 2019 (hint: F.K.T.'s- plural) and we put him on the hot seat for our Lightning Round.

On location is Silverton Colorado for the Hardrock 100. Aric snagged a few people for a roundtable on what makes Silverton and the Hardrock 100 so special. Thank you Breein, Harrison and Jeff for joining in and thanks for the fun miles in the San Juans!

We are fast approaching Singletrack Session #100 and are a full go on the 2018 Hardrock 100 Contest. This week we talk about Killian's Bob Round FKT, Hero Saman Kunont and cover the World Cup final. TrailManners will be on the road most of July but we plan on recording as much as we can.

We first interviewed Gabe in February 2017 (Episode 72), at the Park City Running Company as he was about embark on a 12 hour and 18,000 feet of climbing sufferfest at the Running Up For Air race. In our initial interview we got to know Gabe as the inventor of trail running (you need to go back and listen to show #72, it’s awesome), cheese aficionado, and Hardrocklottery winner.

Of course we had to follow up on Gabe’s impressive 4th place finish at Hardrock and find out what else he has cooking for 2017

He Did It! We have been following Jeff Hart for the past 5 months as he prepared for the Hardrcok 100 and he was kind enough to swing by Ogden to jump into Studio 78 to give us a solid recap of the race. For Jeff it was the pinnacle of his trail running life and as he puts the race into words- you can see and hear the emotion as he recaps the journey.

Thank you Jeff for taking us along and Congrats on not only the Hardrock finish but also the engagement to Jen. You are a class act and someone who continues to inspire. On behalf of TrailManners and our listeners- we are proud to call you our friend!

Singletrack Session #46 brings a good dose of Hardrock 100 and upcoming races. We finally launch our prizes for the "Where Did Your Feet Take You" weekly photo contest thanks to our good friends at The Sign Garage in Ogden, Utah. Each week (for a year) will we be giving away 1 TrailManners Trucker hat to the weekly winner. These are not available in the store so you gotta play to win.

Jeff Hart is coming to us live from Silverton, Colorado- home of the Hardrock 100. Much like the race, this episode is raw and uncut. We even get a guest appearance from Mr. James Varner. We have been keeping up with Jeff on his preparations and training for Hardrock and we are finally here. This show is the last time we get to talk to Jeff until after the race. We cannot thank him enough for taking us on this journey. Jeff -Good Luck and Thank you but most of all we all want you to "KISS IT".

Did Dr. Manners IPA & Cheese Curd prescription work? With a little under 6 weeks until the 2017 Hardrock 100, Jeff Hart joins us for the third installment on his trail to Hardrock. Last time we had Jeff on he talked about battling inuries and the mental toll it was taking. This time around you can hear in his voice that he is feeling better and excited for the San Juans. Thanks again Jeff and good luck with the next month of Hardrock training.
